If You Give The NFL $40, They’ll Give You All The Meaningless Football You Can Handle

There are a few things that have been proven to be recession proof. The NFL, at least in my eyes, is one of them. No matter how tight that budget gets, you can bet that people are still ponying up the cash for the NFL.

The chances of spending your hard earned cash are almost endless. There’s tickets, TV subscriptions, merchandise, food, beverages, and now even preseason games.

Yep, you read that right. For just $40 you can be delighted with watching guys that will be bagging groceries the following week run around in the jersey of your favorite team. And it’s all from the comfort of your home computer!

The NFL Network and NFL.com, says spokesman Dennis Johnson, will formally announce today that preseason games will air live online for the first time. Through a $40 subscription package, NFL.com will stream 54 games live, not including 11 games on national TV. NFLN airs 10 preseason games live.
